Gen Xudou had no desire to join this farce called "Girl Band," and he had never promised anyone forever. But why do you always stubbornly believe you can pluck the stars from the sky, tear them apart, abandon their radiant light, and abandon the boundless universe to become a star that shines only for you? Even if gravity briefly captures a streaking comet, leaving a dazzling wake on the sky, it was only a fleeting chance occurrence. Now, that miraculous chance has ended. Toyokawa Shoko... I have no obligation to preserve the band you abandoned. Let [CryCHIC] become a thing of the past. Until that familiar yet different gravity binds me once again... Why can gravity be divided into two? Wait, I can't be the spiritual pillar, soulmate, de facto leader, the sun that warms everyone, the moon that soothes everyone, the best manager, and the worst betrayer of two bands at the same time. Even stars, caught in the gravity of two black holes, will be torn apart and eventually consumed. [Crychic&mujica&mygo, some changes to the original setting]
I'm a bipolar person who's been transported to Bang Bang's world. Friends tell me Bang Bang's world is a gentle place, and the band members are all bright, cheerful, and positive. I hope to make friends in this world, arrange songs I heard in my past life, form a band, and shine on stage, all to help me manage my illness.
"Rainy Night, Overpass, Maybach."
Crash.

When sitting alone, he often caught himself thinking about her—the girl who had shadowed him for years. He’d imagine her barging into the restaurant, drawing every gaze, then plopping down beside him, propping her chin on her hands as she stared into his eyes.
"Buy me a cola," she’d say.
But tonight, to his surprise, another girl actually did sit next to him.
...
Blue hair. Delicate. Radiantly sociable. A checklist of desirable traits.
Yet when it came to love, she was bafflingly cowardly.
Even his unluckiest junior never got to drink their senpai’s leftovers—but Banaumi did it without trying.
Too scared to confess. Clinging to "I’m fine" while heartbroken. Binge-eating after rejection. When urged to fight for her feelings, she’d just whisper, "I hope they’re happy."
He kept seeing that other girl in her—until he blinked, and a stranger’s face stared back.
A stranger who wasn’t even the same gender.
Looking at the audience below the stage, Deng recalled the day she met the boy.
...
"lifetime?"
Aine felt inexplicably heavy-hearted.
“...”
Looking at the hesitant Ai-yin, the thought of "I messed up again" kept popping into my head. Then, the light went away.
Bang!
The lamp rubbed its head.
"Um? Are you alright?"
The boy, disregarding everything else, anxiously asked the girl...
(Currently implemented: Lonely Rock, Bangdream! It's My Go!!!!!) The idolization trend is sweeping the archipelago, and the light novel industry is no exception. At the behest of a school library, high school author Togawa Akie picks up her long-forgotten electronic keyboard skills, aiming to boost sales of her new work by forming a band. To achieve a more "original" commercial effect, the library doesn't assign her a permanent bandmate. Forced to leave the classroom and scour the streets for collaborators, Togawa encounters a group of girls who, under the name "End," are pursuing their dreams in a band. By chance, she and a girl named Chihaya Aine become entangled in Nagasaki Motoyo's scheme, ostensibly to form a band. "Perhaps everything originates from a fabrication woven from profit." "Then what is the meaning of these emotions and bonds born from this false heart?" (Tachibana, a fusion manga set in the world of idols and bands.)
Ordinary college student Liu Hao and extraordinary customer service representative Toyokawa Shoko were magically connected by China Mobile's 5-yuan monthly Gravity Unicom plan, and from then on, they shared a common destiny. Shoko: I once had a friend who was delicate, yet so sensitive that every scrap of straw seemed to threaten her. Liu Hao: Breaking off our friendship. A gentleman doesn't stand beneath a precarious wall. Shoko: I also had a friend who was gentle, but in reality, couldn't fill the chasm in her heart. Liu Hao: Breaking off our friendship. A smiling tiger is the most terrifying. Shoko: I once... Liu Hao, do you know why you can't grow your nails while playing the piano? (Laughter) Liu Hao: Ahem, enough kidding. Let me offer my opinion as someone who's experienced this... Later, the Gravity Unicom plan went up to 10 yuan. Nagasaki Suyo, who had seen their chat messages, stared intently: "The culprit has been found." Then, the plan went up to 15 yuan. Wakaba Mutsu: Liu, are you acting as a mouthpiece? And then—Liu Hao: Why's the plan price going up again? I'm going to make ends meet! The girls in the band: I topped up your phone for 500,000 yuan, enough for a lifetime. (Mygo's worldview, this is a story about a light-hearted man and a group of heavy-hearted women)
